Reload all layer sets

jpyams

I need to have Virtuoso reload several (preferably all) layer sets while it is open.  I know `pteReloadLayerSet()` reloads the active layer set, but I need to reload multiple layer sets without disrupting the layers that the user currently has visible.

Is there a way to do this with Skill in Virtuoso?

    I didn't test this, but this might work?

    pteSetLSActive(?layerSets pteGetAllLayerSets())
    pteReloadLayerSet()

    Regards,

    Andrew.

    Thanks!  This does work, though it also enables all layer sets and changes what layers the user is currently looking at.  Though I guess there's not a way around that.

    You could do this:

    activeLayerSets=pteGetAllActiveLayerSets()
    pteSetLSActive(?layerSets pteGetAllLayerSets())
    pteReloadLayerSet()
    pteUnsetLSActive(?layerSets setof(layerSet pteGetAllLayerSets() !member(layerSet activeLayerSets)))

    Regards,

    Andrew.
